A thread on reddit sums up a 4Chan discussion with someone claiming to be a viral marker for Electronic Arts prior to his recent dismissal. He outlines his job trolling websites to create good press and deflect bad press, and makes a number of claims about EA, the most significant being they are on the verge of acquiring another company. This is all to be taken with a grain or more of salt, of course, but Blend Games' summary of the summary (how meta) notes an interesting aspect of all this: "What's more is that when he reveals a former forum name, posters instantly recognize him as a guy who had been defending Mass Effect 3, Star Wars The Old Republic and Origin for several months, even using Origin to hand out free games during a brief marketing campaign, meaning he's either legit or one of the most dedicated trolls ever."

It's like slamming your dick in a car door, isn't it? Everyone like "don't do it man! it HURTS!", but you just had to try it anyway...

Everyone else was doing it and it didn't look that bad (cinnamon challenge anyone?) but it's a huge slap in the face.

The coolest thing about Mass Effect 2, was you COULD finish the game without doing ANY upgrades to the ship and everyone died except Joker and the SR2 (which was awesome cause I purposely did a game just to see it).Or in STALKER, if you sold too much stuff you got the money ending, it sucked but in a good way (sorta like Mafia's 2 ending, great ending just didn't expect it).

Using a steering wheel on a Burnout game is like using the Space Shuttle controls to fly a kite.
